The trios match is going to rip but without a solid Kenny match this show really doesn't look special.

it looks like a solid ROH card + some features. I might grab the ppv, time money permitting but i’m not expecting a whole lot.

That would be odd, but honestly, could be good too. But I figure if Kenny was working a tag, they'd do the Lovers.

good on Sam for apologizing properly tbh. at one of the AAW Jim Lynam Tournament shows last year, Trevor Lee (IIRC) yelled human being at a heckling fan and, as far as I know, never apologized or anything. was extremely fuckin uncool and between that and the stuff about Elgin that came out like a month later that whole show is just a huge bummer in my memory :(

(there is a non-zero chance it was not Trevor Lee or was a "lesser" slur [as if that matters] and I am misremembering, but that's how it is in my head, at least. several other ppl on this forum were also there and hopefully can confirm or correct)

I recall Trevor getting some backlash for doing the same at PWG, so that is certainly plausible.

Semi-related, is Trevor Lee still good? I hear almost nothing about his matches anymore. That buzz train just left town.

Trevor Lee was a hot prospect.

Then he had an okay tag match with the Eddie and Davey in TNA and the hype train got derailed in a hurry.

He can join Shigehiro Irie's gang of American misfits in DDT.

Speaking of which Sami Callihan is defending the KO-D title against Irie on August 8th in RockstarPro for that one goon who wanted to go last time.

That was me, and now I'm almost tempted to skip this one unless the rubber match happens in Japan.

The biggest bummer about All In is how it wastes Daniels on Amell. If it was him facing Okada while Marty had a tag with Amell against Best Friends or something it'd be way more interesting

I think that Daniels' veteran presence would be able to carry Amell to a better match than Marty. I wonder if Best Friends would be used in that rumble or whether they are having a tag match on the show. Using them in a rumble would seem like a waste in some ways.

People got weirdly defensive about the All In card on twitter last night, which was entertaining. You could tell who were the ones that bought all the ancillary merch and programming packages. Like New Car Syndrome.

I expect it to be a fun card, but since it was promoted so far in advance without any real matches named, I can understand people feeling let down.

When they were doing the "oh we forgot you guys were coming" thing on twitter Cody said that they had a match but might not like it, which makes me suspect they've actually got something cool.

I don't understand what people expected. It's not like Omega was going to be in every match and they had to fill out the card somehow.

Rey/Fenix/Bandido vs. Ibushi/Bucks is worth the admission, that's an insane match.

Cm Punk immediately came out of a lot of fans mouths when they found out it was happening in Chicago.

I'm not really mad about it but I'm underwhelmed. I can see why others would be. My expectation was to see a lot of cool stuff I may not have otherwise seen. The trios match is awesome because it fits that bill. Okada-Scurll, while likely to be quite good, is a match that could've happened at any time, so it doesn't really feel like a big deal to me.

Also, nobody on Earth cares about Nick Aldis. They had a chance to salvage interest in Cody's match with the Flip Gordon storyline but as it is now, what could be the main event is a match that nobody gives a gently caress about.

The card, while still pretty good, just feels like a good ROH show rather than a really big supercard.

I loved that the first teased match on the card, night of tickets going on sale, was Magnus defending against Cody, and the reaction was fans spending months believing there was no way it wasn't going to be a swerve where literally any other matchup happened for Cody and the belt that night

I'm just baffled at how many people are sleeping on Okada/Marty, as if it's not exactly the kind of cool, fresh matchup we wouldn't see otherwise (maybe in RevPro or something, but New Japan isn't booking that match anytime soon).

When did we start pretending that Marty isn't one of the best wrestlers in the world?

Some of the buzz was about his CWF title run that is still ongoing but shouldn't be and CWF itself has been rough at best since they fired their booker and the technical director quit in protest in January.
